LOL.....Villan, I'm sorry if I laugh but its so great to listen to others with autistic kids. Tristan will not eat mac and cheese without applesauce on top for a reason too long to explain. He "inspects every casserole for any sign of onion and it has nothing to do with the taste.
And then all the other "ordered" things which require multiple and repetitious responses to the point of exasperation...........But he is the light of our lives!
